This male downy was making me laugh. Never seen a woodpecker so particular about which nuts he was going to eat. In the 2nd photograph he is almost laying in the feeder to get the nuts at the bottom. Gotta love him!

Hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are up at the log cabin, winter advisory and already shoveled over 2 feet of snow!

what a pretty thing, he is...and how funny that he wants the nuts on the bottom! snowed in...cabin...i think of roaring fire and all bundled up walking in the woods...enjoying the wildlife...yeah, i could get into that. :) well, except for the shoveling part. lol i'm a lil southern gal and we don't see much snow.

Downys seem to really get into their eating and usually will stay put for me while I snap some shots. This one seems particularly intent and has that tunnel vision thing going. ha haBeautiful detail! :)

What an amazing woodpecker photo. I have seen and even photographed a few woodpecker pictures but I have never seen such a perfectly colored one and he looks so fluffy too. I have only had the chance to run into the black and white ones, the red on this one makes him look sureal!
